(Update 11/8/25...Its ALIVE!!!) 760hp 5.2 supercharged (GT500) Predator engine swap Bronco info thread

[Valhalla]

Fellas, fellas, fellas, let's not bicker and argue over what the assassins are doing. We all know the true purpose is to make your wife give you that look when you pull the car around to get her, this way you can say "the doors do that, sorry".

Also, little kids.

We all know that while chaotic, all assassins are non-random.

Sssoooooo.. the ones that come after me are never the same. I always just imagined they sat around drawing strays to see who gets the job. But it is highly possible that one of them is cheating and the process is not random after all. They aren’t really that trustworthy.

If they're sitting around drawing strays, sounds like you have a ninja not an assassin problem.

Added a second muffler yesterday, sound is just perfect now, at hwy speeds cruising the sound is actually less then my straight piped 2.7...(less drone) But when you crack the throttle open it sounds pissed off!!!

Damn that sounds good!!!! But what I am really jealous of is that great big long torque curve you have there!

Travis John is clearly, uh, developmentally delayed.

Bigmeats has the only:

1 of 1 First Edition (or any other goddamn trim) halfcab

1 of 1 5.2L Supercharged V8 conversion

1 of 1 FDU conversion

But sure, the run of the mill zero-mod basic ass Raptor is "worth" more somehow than someone who has paved the way for the entire community to do more serious modifications.

Wow it took all these big companies working together to do the swap, they make it sound like rocket science . The engine swap was VERY straight forward, and Im here to help anyone who wants to do it themselves, without spending nearly 200k! Ill help with the 5.0 or 5.2, engines as I believe they are a fantastic engine!!! But the overweight, antique designed, pushrod, 2 valve, 7.3 does NOT belong in the 6g Bronco!!! It's like comparing Sumo wrestling to MMA ...BIGGER IS NOT ALWAYS BETTER.

The man is a hero

Isn’t the 7.3 a little more compact than the coyote?

I believe the 7.3 is narrower and slightly shorter in length but is taller
